B Correct answer
Explanation

The Scotch Whisky Act 1988 is the specific UK legislation that defines what can legally be called Scotch whisky. This Act established the geographical indication and production requirements for Scotch whisky. It's not the general Scottish Whisky Act, Whisky Act, or Licensing Act - it must specifically be 'Scotch Whisky' to be correct.
